I took the 480 Achilles to the Range this morning. I had a box of mixed ammo (different bullets - same powder charge) and a box of ammo loaded with one bullet and a different powder charge that I wanted to get rid of.

Gary built the 480 Achilles for me 20 years ago! For those who have not heard of it the story is online = https://leverguns.com/480/480_achilles.htm

I only had 3 rounds loaded with the Killebrew Bullet. Previous shooting with it has demonstrated it is an accurate bullet.

I have not had this pistol out in awhile and as always, I find it a pleasure to shoot.
